Description

Select Uncirculated 1865-S Twenty With Unusual Strike Through

1865-S $20 MS63 Struck Through Obverse PCGS. Ex: Brother Jonathan. A curving indention is noted at the top of the obverse. This was probably the result of a piece of foreign material, such as a wire, being imbedded in the obverse die at the time of striking. With a noble pedigree and lustrous, orange-gold surfaces, this is an important coin for advanced type purposes. Crisply struck throughout, Liberty's cheek and the open fields reveal a few light bagmarks that preclude a higher grade assessment.
